The garage reports that the vehicle, a 2017 model, has only accumulated 57,600 miles and possesses some service history from Toyota, however the previous two years of servicing were conducted privately. I have scheduled the servicing with Toyota at the end of this month. I require a dependable vehicle since I have a daughter on the autism spectrum and need to transport her occasionally. Consider the direct injection system in this vehicle as problematic. I hope it does not malfunction! I will utilise E5 from Costco for enhanced performance.
Should I be concerned?
Thank you.

The service provided by the Toyota main dealer is expected to reveal no additional repairs required, and you should qualify for the Relax warranty coverage.

Thank you for providing the warranty link. I hope the process will not be protracted. The car currently operates adequately, but I am aware that certain service components require replacement, as I am not of their last replacement date.
Thank you one more.

It may have been more advantageous to purchase the hybrid variant, but I hope all will turn out satisfactorily with yours.

The primary reason for the discontinuation of the 1.2 turbo power unit option in the UK market for the 2019 facelift was its lacklustre sales, as the majority of consumers opted for the hybrid alternative.

I am considering a 2019 Toyota C-HR 1.2 petrol. What is it like to drive on the motorway, and does a 1.2 engine encounter difficulties? Advantages and disadvantages overall regarding it. Thank you.

- The C-HR underwent a redesign in October 2019; this was also when the 1.2 turbo engine was discontinued, should a vehicle with Android Auto or Apple CarPlay be necessary.
